The Good News for Users of Crystal Reports with Microsoft Dynamics GP

As a company that specializes in reporting for Microsoft
Dynamics GP, we have received a large number of inquiries recently
asking about the future of using Crystal Reports with Dynamics GP
because of a Microsoft announcement that Crystal Reports is being taken
off the Dynamics GP price list.

This
announcement has been interpreted by many to mean that Microsoft
Dynamics GP is not supporting Crystal Reports anymore. Truth be told, Microsoft Dynamics
GP never really ‘supported' Crystal Reports. Now, Microsoft is supporting its own reporting technology, SQL Server Reporting Services
(SSRS).
